Interview With Barbara

What are some of your favorite things?

I have MANY favorites!! I love Starbucks coffee, chocolate, red wine, yoga, the beach, traveling, massages at the spa, watching re-runs of Sex & the City, I Love Lucy episodes, anything HGTV, spending time with my fave guys-my husband and our 2 boys, painting, sharing laughter & conversation with family and friends and of course shopping and decorating my home with fabulous finds!

Do you have a particular style you love?

What exactly is a Fashion & Interior Stylist? How are you different than those in your industry?

I help you decorate, dress and live with intention thru a process called Styling with Intention. We re-style your space, your image and wardrobe to reflect your personality, lifestyle and what you want to achieve in your life. Many people don’t realize these key factors make a huge impact in your life. I focus on you – your wants, needs, aspirations and well-being. Starting with you, we then blend your personality, lifestyle and personal taste to create your personal style for your wardrobe and décor for your space using the principles of Feng Shui.

I marry both Fashion Styling and Interior Styling with Feng Shui. What we surround ourselves with impacts our thoughts, feelings, attitude and outlook. By surrounding yourself with beautiful things that uplift your spirit, you feel inspired to think about yourself and your image in a positive, healthy, loving way. Just as the colors around us affects our mood and well-being. By making simple shifts, you improve the conditions in your outer world.

True style goes way beyond just your clothing and decor. It’s about living it! It’s about creating a confident, empowered and stylish sense of self. I believe your Home Decor, Image Style and Inner Style are all connected and go hand in hand.

I feel all these components are connected holistically and by bringing balance to all these areas thru the power of Styling with Intention, you will see positive changes reflected in your life.

What individuals do you work with and not work with?

I work with men and women of various professional backgrounds and all walks of life. Individuals that are motivated, focused, enthusiastic, open-minded and committed to investing in themselves and their lives. Whether people want to up-level their image, create a new look in their home or want to make a positive change in their lives, they are focused on making that happen and will greatly benefit from my products and programs.

This is a very exciting process and certain steps must be followed to achieve results. If one is critical, skeptical, procrastinates and does not implement the recommendations given or does not take action on making changes, we may not be a good fit on working together.

We would love to move to a new home but our place isn’t selling? Does Home Staging & Styling help?

YES! It’s very important to get your place looking clean, fresh and presentable to potential buyers. They want to picture themselves living at your home. If your place is messy and cluttered, buyers won’t find it appealing.You want to create a ‘no place like home feeling’ in a competitive buyers market.

How quickly can I expect results?

That really depends on you. What you put into it, is what you get out of it. If you stay on a consistent and focused path and expect to see results, you will! You will see improvement and results in our time working together. Hello -to the new, ‘Styled with Intention‘ you!

I would love a Fashion and Interior makeover but feel I just don’t have the money or the time- what do I do?
